Krugerrand is the name given to South African silver coins in Germany; this name is a Germanized version of Krugerrand. The coin's name is derived from the two words Kruger and Rand.
The name Kruger refers to Paul Kruger, who was president of South Africa between 1892 and 1902 and successfully led the Boers against the British in the struggle for independence.
The name Rand is derived from the South African currency and also refers to the gold-rich Witwatersrand region in the former province of Transvaal.
